I In the accompanying drawing, Figure 1 shows a general View of the garment, the opening at the back being shown in dotted lines, and Fig. 2 is an inside View of the front of thegarment showing the hose suppprters and their connection with the waist band.

The waist of the garment is shown at at, having shoulder straps b, which are made in one piece with the back of the waist and buttoned to the front. The back of the waist c, is secured to the drawers by a buttoned band d forming a part of the drawers, while the drawers and waist are connected together at the front by a waist.

1, also secured to the upper edge of the waist band on the inner side of" the? garment is adapted to fold over the flap f, and cover the safety pins and protect the body of the.

wearer against abrasion or contact with said safety pins or other metallic holders. This forms avery simple but effective construction and is so strong as to make it almost impossible for the safety pins to pull out under the ordinary wear and tear that such garments are subjected to, while at the same time the safety pins may be readily detached for laundry purposes.

' What I claim is a A childs garment comprising a combination waist and drawers, with an attachment for stocking supporters, consistlng of two superimposed flaps secured to the garment at the waist line, each of the fiaps extending across substantially the entire front of the waist band, the inner flap having a plurality of openings spaced apart and adapted to receive safety pins from which the stocking supporters depend, and the outer flap covering the inner flap, substantially as-described.

In testimony whereof I aflix my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
